Chapter 1472: Kite flying competition

Views:

At this time, Beibei was convening a meeting of the management of Warrior City.

Inside the hall, the room was full of people. Looking at these people, Beibei frowned.

"My king, more and more people are coming to us for help now."

"How are we going to deal with this?"

Life in Warrior City is so happy, it is what shepherds always dream of, stable, well-fed and warmly clothed.

So everyone wants to come, and this will cause a lot of problems.

The area outside was very large. Beibei tapped on it with his fingers. There was a barren mountain some distance away.

If there are enough people, it seems possible to reclaim the barren mountains.

What's more, that place is the only way to Da Zhou, and she can push these people towards Da Zhou by herself.

In order for the Great Zhou to become strong, countless people are needed. Bei Bei thought of this and suddenly spoke.

"Are there more and more caravans coming from the Great Zhou recently?"

At present, the factories in Warrior City can no longer keep up, so more factories are being built in Districts 3 and 4.

And grazing is the tradition of grassland people and it must not be lost.

Gu Tang, who was in charge of receiving the Great Zhou merchant caravan, stood up and said, "To answer your Majesty, there are more and more of them."

"But the journey has not been peaceful. Speaking of which, there is one more thing I need to report to the king."

"Some people who were not received by Warrior City stayed on both sides, and some even started robbing people."

"I heard from the caravans from the Great Zhou that there are quite a few people who are robbing. If it's not a caravan from the Great Zhou, they all have money, so please escort them."

"I'm afraid it won't be peaceful even if I come here."

Beibei raised his eyebrows: "Bandits, interesting. Are they from the grassland?"

It’s not that Beibei is suspicious, but the bandits in the territory of Da Zhou have been almost cleared out.

Some people just have bad habits that are hard to change.

"To reply to your Majesty, the matter has not been investigated clearly, but they are all wearing grassland people's clothes."

Whether they were from the Great Zhou or the grassland people, they were wearing grassland people's clothes and were harassing the merchants on the road.

Beibei still felt that some measures should be taken: "How about this, you arrange for the people following behind."

"Arrange them all near the barren mountain. This will be the base of our Warrior City."

This is a good idea. What about those who are not accepted? There are still other tribes.

They all set up some tents on the way here, hoping to trade something with the people from Da Zhou.

This is enough to make those people take risks.

Anyway, there are advantages to be gained, so why not let others take them instead of letting Warriors City take them

Since there are so many people, just arrange for more of them to go.

It just so happens that a road for trade with the Great Zhou has been built. If there are people along the way, the caravan will be safer.

Thinking of this, Beibei gave the order for this matter.

After the meeting, Beibei could finally relax and Wan Zhenzhen walked in from outside.

Looking at Bei Bei in front of him: "My king, you are leaving the court now."

Beibei hummed: "Yeah, what did you do just now? You seem to be in a good mood."

Wan Zhenzhen came to the grassland not alone, but with her father and a large family.

Now many people from the Wan family are serving in the grassland court.

Speaking of which, the Wan family was the first person to follow Beibei to join the Da Zhou, and the first to try something new.

He didn't achieve the highest position in the Zhou Dynasty, but he did it here.

Wan Zhenzhen was in a very good mood and looked at Beibei and said, "I just went to graze with them."

"My king, those sheep are very interesting, and there is also beef."

People were not allowed to eat beef during the Great Zhou Dynasty, but here you can eat it as much as you want.

Speaking of which, after coming here, no one knew Wan Zhenzhen's identity, and everyone thought she was the eldest daughter of the Wan family.

Not married yet! Wan Zhenzhen also likes this kind of life, but she wants to meet a man she likes.

There aren’t any at the moment. Although the guys from the grassland are quite good-looking, I haven’t seen any that I like so far.

Besides, the entertainment on the grassland is really bad, not as lively as in Kyoto.

The most lively time was the celebration when Beibei ascended the throne as queen.

Many nearby tribes sent people to celebrate.

Wan Xinxin has been here for quite some time and has discovered that the people on the grassland are very hardworking and have endless things to do every day.

"My lord, I feel that the entertainment life of the people here is so monotonous."

"Every day I just keep working. It's really boring."

Before she came, she was very interested in cattle and sheep, but after herding them for a long time, she felt a little bored.

She had no interest in going out hunting.

When Beibei heard this, he looked at Wan Zhenzhen curiously: "Are you bored?"

"What did you do during your time in the Great Zhou?"

Wan Zhenzhen thought about it and finally explained: "When you are in the Great Zhou Dynasty, you can go watch Cuju matches when you have free time."

"There are also various competitions, where you can go to listen to singing and dancing. There are also food competitions."

Food competition, Beibei narrowed her eyes, she also wanted to eat delicious food.

There are very few vegetables here, not as abundant as in Dazhou.

Beibei sighed: "You mean, we can hold a food competition?"

Wan Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows and shook her head: "I don't think it's appropriate."

"As for the grassland people, they like to eat meat and drink wine with big mouthfuls. How can they cook fine food?"

"I think the grassland is large and suitable for flying kites!"

The grassland is endless. You can choose any place to fly a kite or even hold a kite competition.

As for kites, of course I made them myself.

It just so happens that the spring farming season is about to begin, and everyone except those in the factory has been busy all year.

It's time to find some time to relax.

"Okay, then let's have a kite-flying competition. I'll have someone pick a location."

"Give you three days to make kites at home."

As for the matters concerning the competition, they still needed to be discussed in detail, and Beibei soon found a few people to discuss it.

Go out to select a site and start getting busy.

Several people started discussing the kite flying competition again.

Right now, the Warrior City is filled with 500,000 people.

It would not be appropriate to invite everyone in the city to participate in a kite-flying competition.

"My lord, why don't you choose a place, District 1 or District 2 will do."

Speaking of which, Districts One and Two were the first people to follow Warrior City, so when there is an activity like this, they are naturally considered first.

Beibei thought about it and nodded: "Okay, let's hold it in District 1 first. Let the Wan brothers and sisters take care of this matter."

The Wan family naturally lives in District 1. They are also qualified: "Okay, then I'll go back and prepare the kite first."

In the past, people on the grassland had no idea what a kite was, but after they began to trade with the Great Zhou, everyone knew about it.

It would always be inconvenient for the city lord to preside over the event.

Beibei narrowed his eyes and glanced at Wan Xinxin: "Let's hold it in the name of the Wan family this time."

After all, this kind of competition, if it is officially defined, is too large and inappropriate.

For now, the focus of Warrior City should still be development.

You can make money by engaging in entertainment, but you can’t do it in the City Lord’s Mansion.

When they heard that the Wan family was going to hold a kite-flying competition, many people signed up excitedly.

Although it is limited to one area, there are still many people in that area.

What's more, such competitions are basically just for fun among the kids from rich families.

At least that's the case in Kyoto. Wan Zhenzhen and her second brother Wan Yu are the main persons responsible for this matter.

"Second brother, let's put it this way, we still have to set some thresholds."

"Otherwise, if everyone came to sign up, how could there be so many people?"

"We will first check the kites they made, and then register. The registration fee is 200 wen per person."

"The first place winner can get nearly 100 taels. The second place winner will get 50 taels, and the third place winner will get 30 taels."

"The fourth to tenth place winners will each get ten ryo. What do you think?"

Only with registration fees can there be income, so Wan Yu naturally has no problem with that.

"If that's the case, then our Wan family can't participate."

Wan Zhenzhen curled her lips and said, "What does that matter? Besides, we are the organizers, so we will definitely receive more money."

"Let's put the kites made by our Wan family in the sky and let everyone see what they look like."

"We can choose to sell kites. The grassland people can't make kites as good as we do."

That’s right, in this way, selling kites can also be a source of income.

Beibei didn't have any objection. After all, Wan Zhenzhen was just bored and wanted to find something to do.

Besides, since this matter did not harm the grassland, we just let it go.

She had a lot of other things to deal with, and just as she made the decision, someone sent a message over.

"My lord, it's bad. There was a sandstorm over there in the barren mountain, burying all the people over there."

Sandstorm! Beibei suddenly remembered why they chose this place to build the city.

Because building a city in this place can prevent major disasters from happening.

This is a good place, he sighed, "Since everyone lives on the grassland, let's send someone to dig them up."

You can't just stand by and watch someone die.

After all, the grassland is full of disasters and variables, so it's no wonder that we can only rely on migration.

Fortunately, Warrior City is a good place and no disasters have occurred in all these years.

Beibei now admires his father and mother so much that they actually found such a blessed place.

Jiang Hu came to Bei Bei's side and asked, "Do you need me to bring people over to rescue them?"

Beibei frowned: "You don't need to show up, Warrior City has so many people now!"

Jiang Hu nodded: "Okay."

Speaking of which, whenever Jiang Hu goes out now, people always greet him and call him Mr. Wang.

Beibei tilted his head and talked to Jiang Hu about the kite competition.

"Zhenzhen is a little bored, so I asked her to organize a kite-flying competition. Oh, and the people from Da Zhou might also be interested."

"Tell Zhenzhen to invite merchants from Da Zhou to participate as well."

They must have watched various competitions frequently in Da Zhou, and might be interested in the kite competition!

Jiang Hu thought so too: "Okay, I'll find someone to notify them."
